Do you have a short term memory?
Are you seeking for a password manager to store all those you numerous passwords and usernames automatically while you use any site?
If you are seeking for answers to the above questions and your making use of Google Chrome, then your in safe hands, but if you sought answers to the above question and your not using the Chrome Web browser, then you better switch to Google Chrome Browser.

Google's browser 'Google Chrome' has an in-built password manager that asks you to save your username and password whenever you sign-in to any site. And all passwords stored on the chrome in-built password manager are synchronized with the Google account signed in on that chrome browser, and hence are made available across all chrome browsers on all devices where you signed in using that same Google Account.

It is important to note that Google Chrome browser is available for download on all operating systems, therefore your passwords are always available when you use Chrome on another device logged in with that same google account.

In essence, you can still get access to all those your passwords and usernames using a different browser(not Chrome) at any time, and at any location.
Simply;
>> Log-on to passwords.google.com
>> Sign in with the google account that you use on your chrome browser and viola, the full list of all your saved passwords and usernames will appear in correspondence to the site in which they are been used.

Note: The password are hidden in asterisk, just click the corresponding eye icon and the password will be shown in plain text. You can also remove any of the saved password, but can't edit.

TIP:  It's advisable to keep the password of that particular Google account safe, because any one who has access to it, has indirectly gotten access to all your passwords and usernames used on your Google chrome browser. And if you feel uncomfortable seeing all your passwords on Google password site, then you should stop saving them when prompted by chrome to do so, during a login.
Or alternatively,
>> Open Google Chrome on your desktop, >>Go to advanced settings under settings
>>Under encryption options, choose encrypt all synchronized data and then specify your own passphrase and save.
